⏪ Barcelona beat Real Madrid to extend lead at the top of LaLiga | OneFootball

That's all from us across a dramatic and goal-filled El Clásico. Thanks for joining us throughout the game!

What a game! Barcelona showed their quality in an electric end to the first half, where they fired in four goals that secured victory.

Real Madrid made the best start possible and even Kylian Mbappé's hat-trick was not enough to prevent defeat, which sees Los Blancos lose vital ground in the title race.

FULL-TIME Barcelona 4-3 Real Madrid

Barcelona hold on to go seven points clear at the top of LaLiga!

BARCELONA GOAL RULED OUT

In the dying moments, Fermín López ends any Real Madrid comeback attempt by dribbling past three defenders and thumping an unstoppable finish into the net past Courtois. However, the referee consults the monitor and rules out the effort for handball during the build-up.

Real Madrid have the ball in the net as Mbappé flicks in from a corner but he is well offside and the goal is chalked off.

HUGE CHANCE!

Substitute Víctor Muñoz races into the box and goes one on one with Szczęsny but the youngster blazes his shot high and wide. That was a glorious opportunity for Los Blancos!

Into the final few minutes in Barcelona and Real Madrid need to muster a late response to keep chase in the LaLiga title race.

NO PENALTY

The referee consults the pitchside monitor and doesn't award a penalty to the Blaugrana.

PENALTY APPEAL

Ferran Torres rifles the ball towards goal inside the area and it appears to strike Aurélien Tchouaméni on the arm. VAR check incoming...

ANOTHER CHANCE

Raphinha almost completes his own hat-trick with a close-range shot that flies well over the crossbar. A big miss!

CHANCE

Yamal has another opportunity, receiving a pass inside the area and firing straight at Courtois.

GOAL REAL MADRID

Mbappé completes his hat-trick by tapping in from Vinicius Junior's pass. Is there enough time for Real Madrid to level in the final 20 minutes?

After an emphatic first half, the sting has gone out of the game slightly. Barcelona seem happy to control possession and still look dangerous in the final third.

CHANCE

Mbappé whips a shot towards Barcelona's bottom corner that flies inches past the bottom corner. The Frenchman has been a real bright spark for Los Blancos this evening.

BARCELONA GOAL RULED OUT

Raphinha bursts clear of the Real Madrid defence and sets up Yamal for a simple finish, but the Brazilian was offside when starting his run.

CHANCE

Barcelona show no signs of letting up and Yamal fires a shot towards the top corner that goes narrowly over the bar.

SECOND HALF

Here we go again in the Clásico. Any more goals and drama to come?

HALF TIME - Barcelona 4-2 Real Madrid

Just as Real Madrid looked to have control, Barcelona roared back with four goals in 30 minutes in a pulsating first half to the Clásico!

GOAL BARCELONA

Raphinha nets again to cap a rampant turnaround for Barcelona as the Brazilian plays a one-two with Fernan Torres and smashes in from six yards.

PENALTY REAL MADRID OVERTURNED

All of a sudden, Real Madrid race into Barcelona's half and Frenkie de Jong clips Mbappé in the area for a penalty, but the decision is overturned for offside during the build-up.

CHANCE

Raphinha heads over from close range, a great chance and should've been four for Barcelona!

ANOTHER BARCELONA GOAL!

Wow, Barcelona strike just minutes later and Raphinha puts the hosts in front with a low finish into the net.

GOAL BARCELONA

They're level and it's the young superstar Yamal who comes up with the goods, curling into the top corner from a tight angle. What a turnaround!

García's goal has certainly given Barcelona a lift and they are probing for an equaliser.

GOAL BARCELONA!

Eric García pulls one back for Barcelona, heading in from close range. What a start to the Clásico!

CHANCE

Lamine Yamal tests Thibaut Courtois for the first time with a thumping shot from distance.

GOAL REAL MADRID!

It's the perfect start for Real Madrid and Mbappé strikes again as he races clear of the Barcelona defence and lashes into the net. Can Barça claw back from here?

That penalty takes Mbappé to 25 goals for the LaLiga campaign, level with Barcelona's Robert Lewandowski.

REAL MADRID GOAL

Mbappé makes no mistake from the spot and fires a powerful shot past Szczęsny's outstretched hand. Advantage Real Madrid!

PENALTY REAL MADRID

Wojciech Szczęsny races out and brings down Kylian Mbappé for a stonewall penalty. No arguments there from Barcelona.

KICK OFF

We're moments away from kick-off at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium.

League leaders Barcelona hold a four-point advantage over second-place Los Blancos with just four games remaining.

A Barça victory would see them inch closer to a second LaLiga title in three years, while this could be Real Madrid's final chance to close the gap.

El Clásico games do not get much bigger than this.
